“The weather was an issue, as it rained on and off throughout. Ultimately, the meet was called due to weather before the JV divisions were able to compete,” Aledo coach Mike Pinkerton said. “All in all, we had a very good showing.
“Many of our JV runners participated in the Open Varsity division, and competed very well. Our Varsity runners competed in the Elite Varsity division and also finished well. Very proud of our entire team.”
The Ladycats were led by Molly Garrison, who finished eighth individually with a time of 18 minutes, 18 seconds over the 5-kilometer course. As a team, the Ladycats were 10th.
The Bearcats, who were 21st as a team, were led by Tyler Connelly’s seventh-place finish with a time of 15:09.
The meet featured almost 1,200 runners in four divisions.
